Having a non-judgemental, empathic and understanding therapist can help us heal and process difficult emotions and experiences. And I aim to be that type of therapist for all my clients.

Michelle Directo
Registered Psychotherapist, MDiv, RP, ExA
Hello, my name is Michelle.
I am a registered psychotherapist who draws from a variety of different approaches. I appreciate the steps that you are taking towards change and growth. I am a mother of four, and in my free time I love to read, hike, dance, and travel. I personally understand what it is like to come from a place of needing and asking for help. This awareness helps me to empathize and create a place for you to share your unique experiences. I would love the opportunity to provide a safe space for you to do so. It would to be an honour for me to help you re-write new chapters in your story. I provide a 15 minute free consultation in which you can determine if I am the right fit for you.

Nathan Kretzschmar
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Finding your way back to a sense of balance, clarity, and inner steadiness is not always easy. Life can feel painful, confusing, or overwhelming at times, especially when you are carrying anxiety, trauma, emotional overwhelm, grief, identity questions, or major life transitions.
In therapy, I see our work as collaborative. You are the expert on your own life and story, while I bring clinical training, curiosity, and experience to help us better understand what you are facing. My approach is person-centred, trauma-informed, and grounded in mindfulness. I integrate approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, CBT, MBCT, EMDR, CBT-I, and the Unified Protocol when appropriate.
I do not see mental health as the absence of painful thoughts or emotions. Difficult experiences are part of being human. What often matters is how we relate to those experiences and whether we can still move toward a life that feels meaningful, connected, and aligned with our values.
My hope is to offer a grounded, nonjudgmental space where you can feel understood as a whole person, not simply a collection of symptoms or problems. Together, we can work toward greater self-understanding, emotional steadiness, and meaningful change.
